    I can't believe it Maple Leaf added wheat Gluten to the Top Dogs as of late summer everyone in Canada beware because these now contain gluten. Everyone should call and tell them how unhappy they are about this, I called today and they said that they have already recieved a few calls.

    Hi, My little guy turned three in December and we've been to a few different parties, One was at play place that then served pizza afterwards with the cake and presents. I called ahead explained about food issues and they just let me bring my own pizza and cake slice for him( he didnt' eat though just wanted to keep playing so he might not even care...

    HI, I went to Chili's in Calgary and it was horrible my son has celiacs and the manager was so rude if it hadn't been for the other people I would have left as well. Its because Chilli's in Canada isn't the same as the ones in the states they dont' have all that carb aware stuff. I have to say it was one of the worst experiences dealing with people...

    HI My little guy just turned three a couple weeks ago and when he was two only weighed 21lbs as well a year ago we put him on the diet against doctors recommondations and he has gained about five pounds and he has less bowel problems (was the oppostie though he was constipated) I have no regrets and dont' know if I'll ever bother getting the biopsy...

    I'd start supplying food to the daycare and have a seperate toaster, cutting board, that kinda stuff for him and can you buy your own art supplies so he doesn't use theirs if they arent' the right type. Also if they arent' going to work with you I'd be looking into a new daycare as this is his health. Same with the neighbors I'd call and just explain about...

    Hi The best place by far is the Amaranth Food Market which is in the NW by Arbour Lake, Crowfoot. You can get pretty much everything there, Safeway used to carry alot but they got rid of a bunch of stuff. Also in the SW there are a couple bakeries so they carry fresh stuff, I believe one is in Marda Loop and the other is at the end of Crowchild...

    Hi Our blood work was negative and we took our son off anyway and he has put on lots of weight and seems to be eating alot better. Not sure which type he had though. Sounds like I would keep her on the diet if she has improved that much.
  8. lovemyboy
    Yes it is possible are son is on a gluten free diet without the biopsy and with the blood work negative but i've read its quite unreliable on children under two. So if they are going to do a bopsy right away do that otherwise try the diet you have nothing to lose and she could improve greatly, if she does you probably want to get your other daughter checked...

    To add to this, it actually depends on the size of the store how many friers there are. I'm in Canada but I would imagine small stores in the states are the same. I worked at three different locations all free standing. two had seperate friers that the nuggets and all that were cooked in, the third had seperate slots so no oil mixing but yes the nuggets...

    I believe it is one teaspoon of eggreplacer to two tablespoons of water. So you should have put 3tsp of egg replacer and six tblsp of water it should say on the side of the box though, I have the kingsmill kind.

    Your right a bunch of them contain worchester sauce which contains malt vingear, hmm the teriyaki is gluten free though. Well I guess we haven' t been reading labels carefully enough. Does the Lea and Perrins Worchestire sauce contain malt vingear I realized last month that they all contain malt vinegar. I thought so I didn't buy any.
  12. lovemyboy
    Dianas Good and they all seem to be gluten free not sure if they are only Canadian though or not, they have the only teriyaki sauce that i can find that doesn't contain wheat in the soy sauce.

    My understanding is that once into the cycle of constipation it can be hard to get out of especially for children as they fear the pain. Do you just take him off the stool softners laxitives all at once or have you been gradually weaning him? Another thought does he drink milk that also causes consipation. With constipation the bowel usually has stretched...

    HI I'm curious about gluten free art supplies and such, I also have a home dayhome that I just put an ad out in our newsletter offering gluten free food. My ds is the only one that has celiac in my dayhome so I still serve the others regular bread and some regular cereals but all other foods are gluten free, but want to know about art supplies and...
  15. lovemyboy
    Maybe dumb question but is that the same as constipation?
  16. lovemyboy
    That might be a good idea to call the paper, I'm thinking more of advertising celiac aware though as I do still have regular bread and oatmeal so for the time being I don't think I'll be completely gluten free, as don't know how many people would be interested and if some non celiac kids want to sign up. I meant the calgary celiac newsletter...
  17. lovemyboy
    Thanks I'm in the Northwest too. I'm going to see about putting an ad in the next newsletter. What did you mean about regulations? If you mean just for dayhomes in general I'm already part of an agency and have been operating for about five months.

    I'm curious why he was tested? Its not usually a routine test is it? Probably you would want to get a bioposy done.

    Hi I've only posted once or twice but wanted some others opions on this matter. I run a dayhome and am planning on advertising gluten free food as my son eats that way all pastas and such that I serve are already gluten free only give oatmeal and regular bread to the other kids everything else is gluten free. So wondering how would I advertise this? ...
  20. lovemyboy
    That's how I understand it to be. Because if the diet is working all his levels should return to normal.

    I think that's the one we sent to our inlaws and they seem quite happy with it my father in-law is celiac and lives in a small town so not much is available but they've been baking bread like crazy now so that's good.

    The ones in Canada are but I know sometimes the igredients change between the countries so can't say for sure you could call them tommorrow though.

    I guess they really bother my Fil so would they be okay to feed my 2year old? Is that just a seperate reactiona and not related to celiacs.

    Hi I've done alot of reading now that we think Dylan has this and from what I've read I wouldn't even worry about the cereals and start introducing other foods the World Health Organization now recommends only formula or breastmilk till 6months so you don't even need to start any food yet. I've also read some stuff on how you can start with fruit...
  25. lovemyboy
    Thanks I was aware of that, its why we moved onto thinking he had celiacs since he was off milk when he started getting nasty poops again. We are planning to reintroduce that after probably six months and see how it goes. One thing I have wondered is why people think a gluten free diet is so restrictive? I've wondered that too that's why we've...
